===Recent developments===
In November 2005, Warwick outlined proposals for how it would like to develop its campus over the next fifteen years.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/campusdevelopment/|title=Campus Development—The Masterplan |publisher=warwick.ac.uk|access-date=19 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190102114017/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/campusdevelopment/|archive-date=2 January 2019|url-status=live}}</ref> The proposals built upon recent construction activity including a new [[Mathematics]] and [[Statistics]] Building, new [[Computer Science]] Building, new [[Business School]] buildings, a Digital Laboratory, new Residences and an expanded [[Sports]] Centre. The proposals envisage a shift in the "centre of gravity" of the campus away from the Students' Union towards University House and a proposed "Academic Square".

Developed projects included an inter-disciplinary biosciences research facility; a £25&nbsp;million upgrade to [[Warwick Business School]]; and the [[National Automotive Innovation Campus]] (NAIC), a new £150&nbsp;million venture funded by [[Jaguar Land Rover]] and the UK government. The NAIC's purpose was to research and develop novel technologies to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and to reduce {{CO2}} emissions. The new {{convert|30000|sqft|m2|abbr=on}} campus for postgraduates was opened in early-2020. The campus has been dubbed a "brain trust" and is intended to pioneer the green and high-tech sports and luxury cars of tomorrow, doubling the size of Jaguar's research team.<ref>{{cite news|last=Cooke|first=Daniel|title=£100m investment boost for Warwick University|url=https://www.independent.co.uk/student/news/100m-investment-boost-for-warwick-university-8839352.html|newspaper=The Independent|date=25 September 2013|location=London|access-date=31 October 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180130222917/https://www.independent.co.uk/student/news/100m-investment-boost-for-warwick-university-8839352.html|archive-date=30 January 2018|url-status=live}}</ref>

In 2017, the university announced its intention to see an exponential growth of its main campus in order to remain "world-class" and cope with the growing number of applications it receives each year, especially from non-UK students.<ref name="auto">{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/strategy/ |title=The University of Warwick Strategy 2018 to 2030 |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190102144331/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/strategy |archive-date=2 January 2019 |url-status=live }}</ref> This growth included a new £33&nbsp;million Faculty of Arts, a £55&nbsp;million new sports centre which was finished in April 2019, a new £54.3&nbsp;million Interdisciplinary Biomedical Research Building (IBRB), a new type of student accommodation called "Cryfield Village", the expansion of [[Warwick Manufacturing Group]] (WMG), a redevelopment for the Art centre and a new Library.<ref name="warwick.ac.uk">{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/campus/developments/ |title=Developments &#124; Our Campus &#124; University of Warwick |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170806012228/http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/about/campus/developments |archive-date=6 August 2017 |url-status=live }}</ref> For this occasion, [[Vice-Chancellor]] of Warwick University [[Stuart Croft (political scientist)|Stuart Croft]] declared: "New buildings are and will continue to be a part of our everyday existence. We need to open one new academic building a year from now until at least 2023. In order to do this and to keep Warwick as one of the world’s leading universities, we need to do this together, involving the whole community."<ref>{{cite web |url=https://warwick.ac.uk/about/community/campusdevelopments/ |title=Campus developments |access-date=21 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180831122308/https://warwick.ac.uk/about/community/campusdevelopments |archive-date=31 August 2018 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref name="warwick.ac.uk"/><ref name="auto"/>
